London Eco-Roof Manufacturing: Keeping a roof over London’s head
A family-owned and operated business, London Eco-Roof has positioned itself as a leader in the manufacturing of steel and aluminum roofing. Despite having only been in business since 2009, their environmentally aware business practices and their dedication to providing their customers with high-quality products have given London Eco-Roof Manufacturing a reputation for being among the best in the business. You take pride in your home. London Eco-Roof understands that, and they strive daily to provide customers like you with products and services that will give them a roof of which they can be proud.
President Joe Malec is excited about the company’s brand-new retail location, set to open next month. The store will be called Eco Roof Express, a division of London Eco-Roof and will serve as a one-stop shopping destination for everyone from a do it yourself person to the seasoned professional. The opening of the store was inspired by feedback from the company’s clients, who were looking for a way to purchase Eco-Roof’s high-quality products for smaller, at home jobs. Malec hopes to make his new store stand out from the competition. To achieve that, the store will feature large scale displays aimed at giving customers a clear idea of what the finished roof will look like. The display will be interactive allowing customer to actually touch the roofing materials.
The store will go beyond carrying a vast array of roofing supplies to include, for sale or rent, all of the related accessories customers will need to complete the job, a sort of “roofing superstore”. From the higher-end metal roofing products that customers have to come to associate with the Eco-Roof name to lesser-expensive options, the new Eco-Roof store will have the supplies, for every job and every budget. In addition, the store will be staffed by friendly, knowledgeable staff who will be on hand to answer your questions and give you a price quote. While you’re at the store, why not check out what they have to offer in terms of skylights and solar panels? If it goes on the roof of your house, you’ll find it at Eco-Roof.
Eco-Roof Manufacturing also specializes in creating a kit for every building job, from a full-scale home or cottage to smaller jobs such as a gazebo. They’ll cut the sheet metal to order and include all the materials necessary to complete your job, right down to the last nail. Pick up your kit in-store or have it delivered directly to your work site. One of the most innovative features of the new Eco-Roof Express is a machine that will be able to accurately cut your materials while you wait.
Located at 1682 Dundas St. E., and 335 Neptune Crescent in east London, Eco-Roof Manufacturing is open from 8:30 am to 5:00 pm.

Lower prices for metal roofing are here to stay, thanks to London Eco-Roof Manufacturing Inc.
Joe Malec, president of the young firm, says it is a myth that metal roofing systems are only for the super-rich. He says lower prices are key at London Eco-Roof because everyone should be able to afford their own metal roof.
In the past, metal roofing has been viewed as a high-end product only for the few, but he says London Eco-Roof has changed that.
“Our mission is to provide the product to average-earning families,” he insists. “We want to provide the product to normal folks like you and I.”
The first thing prospective customers say to the firm’s sales managers is they are surprised by the economical price being offered.
Metal tile panels are a graceful and durable roofing material, suitable for most pitched roof applications. They combine the traditional look with the latest technology and can be used on residential and commercial buildings. The tile panels have several protective layers to ensure durability.
It is one of the most lightweight roofing materials available, which is an advantage because it does not require a heavy roof support structure.
“Our roofs are more complicated to install and time-consuming, but far more durable, secure and long-lasting,” Malec says. “Forty percent of our work is carpentry to ensure a solid structural base. I would not be surprised if our roof lasted one hundred years and maybe after 40 to 50 years, you might paint or treat it to bring it back to its original lustre.”
The product is designed to be a permanent roof, not a temporary cover. “You put it on once, and on average, it will last longer then we live,” says Malec.
When you invest in a metal roof, he says neighbours will be more aware of the care you take of your home and the importance of machining it a more energy-efficient residence.
In most cases, the metal roof increases the resale value of your home by as much as five to seven percent. The product also comes with a warranty that can be transferred to the new homeowner, which gives you and future owners peace of mind.
In addition, you are going to achieve more savings by applying metal roofing. You will reduce the heat generated through the roof from sun’s UV rays being absorbed, thereby providing more liveable space on your second floor. It means, in summer, your home is cooler by 3-4 degrees, requiring your air conditioner to run less often.
Customers in the Hamilton area and across the province offer high praise for London Eco-Roof, as well. “Our satisfaction rate is approximately ninety-seven percent,” he says. “There is a large portion of our customers who are ecstatic and they can’t say enough. In some instances, they have tears in their eyes because they didn’t expect it would look so great. It is overwhelming how we change the way your home looks – and performs.”
If you are looking for a metal roof, you owe it to yourself to give London Eco-Roof a call and find out how and why the product is more economical than you may have thought. For more details, call toll-free to 1-855-838-9393 or call Cliff, the local sales manager, directly at 905-719-9520.
You can also visit them at area trade shows in the upcoming weeks, including Ancaster Feb. 24-26, the National Home Show Mar. 16-25, Burlington Mar. 30-Apr. 1, Oakville Apr. 5-7, or other events in Mississauga and London. Check out www.londonecoroof.com for more information.
